ORDINAPIOX OP • MESH MYRA
KINGSBURY.
3 i c
vis hethequin is a quiet. secluded nook on the
left bank of the Susquehanna river. The
charms of this rural paradise have been sung
b that sweet poetess, Mrs. Julia Kinney
Siott, in musical verse. The drive along the
aver is usually delightful, at this season of
the year; and where there are many views of
charming landsciPes, one can no longer won
de3r that poets and artists seem to be the
natural production of the "Happy Valley. °
Hence my regret that ou Thursday het, as I
drove up from Towanda to attend the ordina
tion of Miss Myra Kingsbury, there was a
thick, yellowish vapor that hid the scenery
and gave a weird, unreal look to even the
nearest objects.. The faint outlines of a house
on a distant hillside were seen through the
cloud of vapor and looked like, an enchanted
castle, whose fonndations -Were not of earth.
A goodly number of friendly neighbors had
gathered at the old chnich in liheshequin to
,witness .tho ‘olemncereruonies which should
set apart a modest and gifted maiden to the
work of a public ministry. Loving hands
had brought their beautiful offerings of
flowers and arranged them with exquisite
taste abput the high, old-fashioned pulpit. A
platform was erected in front of the pulpit,
and the services toqk plaice amidst a perfect
bower of magnificent iloWering plants. The
gallery, which ran around three sides of the
auditorium; was- ornamented With wreaths
and4estoons of evergreens. In the rear of
the platform was an arch, bearing the words
"The Lord Is Good To AU," and "Welcome
friends." •
Bor. S. C. Hayford, of Vermont preached
the ordination sermon, from the Words, "Be
thou faithful unto death and I will give thee
the crown of Life." It was ad eloquent eihor !
Wien to the people to be faithful and, help':
ful to their pastors, in the work of teaching
And preaching the gospel. , •
Dr. Taylor of Towanda made, the ordination
prayer; which touched the hearts of all pres
ent with itcearnest pleadings for her who
was about CO assume such great yet welcome
responsibilities.
Rev. S. C. Chandler of Connecticut, made
some appropriate and inipressivo remarks
upon the duties and privileges of the gospel
ministry..
.
With modeit dignity, Miss Kingsbury
knelt at the front of the platform and the
solemn ceremony of consecration took place
by the laying on of hands." The lovely, dark
eyes of _the gifted young lady- were htimid
with tears - and her - lips tremulous with feel
ti
in , as the words of 'the ordination benedic
ti n were pronounced by Dr. Taylor.
es Kingibury has lived a very retired
life in her quiet Sheshequin -home; but she
his been an indefatigable -seeker after the
unsearchable riches of the truth, as contained
in the Holy Scriptures. I must approach
this pure and maidenly life with reverent
and "unshod feet i " 'hence I, cannot detail all
the circumstances that ledJ her from a.
vestal seclusion to the- public work of the
Blaster. It is only two years. since she be
gan a special course of study to prepare for .
the ministry. One year ago she was placed
in charge of a parish at . Williston. Vermont.
Though the usual time devoted to theological
studies is four years, yet this talented
young lady passed a most rigid examination
with great credit, in less than two years after
having entered upon a preparatory coarse.
With so many rich gifts of mind and person,
with vigor of intellect and womanly sympa
thies and sensibilities, she seems thoroughly
equipped for the noble work to. which she has
been called. Like Joan of Aro, she' listened
to, a nd obeyed, "the spirit voices" 'and put
on the armor of a soldier of the Cross over
the mode+t robes of maidenhood. Who can
doubt that the delicate hands will bo strong
enough to carry the?-spotless banner of the
f
Prince of Peace on to bloodless victories? .

of the...greatest drawbacke•sie have in : our i
Sabbath Schools, e,the difficulty of getting
parents to attend ! them with their children.
Being a Sunday School worker myself Fknow
the necessity of baring parents present' at
the, Sabbath School; and I would say to them
it is a duty you olio to your children and to
your God. Where is the father or mother in
this land who would 'like to see their children
grow np in ignOrance of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ? the only thing that can nuke ns truly

Fathers l mothersi do 'you want to tee your
children grow up to till our prisons—to steal,

gambling houses? If not. go with them to
the Sunday Sehool—help to give them a re

he returned to Allegany county and took up
his resideace at Behuont, then called Philips !

Mr. Tracy, had 'a family of eight children;
six daughters, Mrs. May Wheeler, of Angels
Lea, Mrs. Eliza Waahhorts,. of Naples; Ontario'
county, Mrs. Maria Sears, of Marengo, Illi
nois, Mrs. Lemira Barber (deceased), Mrs.
Lucy Slaftor, of Belmont, and Mrs. Hattie
Holcombe, of Granby, Connecticut; and two
sons, Solomon H. Tracy, and Seth H, Tracy,
both residents of Belmont. ' '
The deceased was a positive character, il
lustrating better than almost ' any man the
early pioneer spirit of Allegany county; He
had an aggressAre courage and an indomi
table will. Those qualities came into vigor- -
ens practice amid the hardships incident to
clearing the now and wild territory of the
county, pee - pled at the time of his arrival'
chiefly by Indians and wild beasts. With
these savage neighbors he had frequent band
to hand encounters, and afterward _f orgiving
and forgetting, ho Joined the red an at the
annual corn dance. He took natuallyto cul
tivating land and achieved groat success as a
;g
scientific farmer, which was the he ht of his
ambition. He took a deep later at in the
affairs of his country and ,was a constant
reader, not only of sacred history but of
modern literature. His tenacity of,beLief and
purpose made him strongly and actively par
tizan and a firm aid unchanging Democrat
of -the Jeffersonian order. He was a firm be
liever in the Christian religion and in a future
existence. Ho was hospitable ‘ and generous
to a fault; a faithful husband, ',kind and affec
tionate father. For the last twelve or four
teen years of hie life he devoted the of
his time in caring:for and administering to
the wants, day and night, of his invalid wife.
Mr. Tracy belonged to the Masonic order
for more than fifty years, and passed through
the most exciting times of Masonry. Ho was
one of the umber that instituted the chap
ter at Welleirille. For the past several years
he had ceased from active membership in any
lodge, death having summoned all of his early
associates. Tho deceased was a great admit
er of horses, and it has been his pride sinea,
early life to ride and drive a fine horse. On
Saturday previous to his death he was seen
-driving a spirited yeung borne on our streets
with as much ease and composure as in for-,
mei days. •On the following Tuesday ho was
taken sick, though no fears were felt that it
was more than a temporary iodisposition,•and
he retired Wednesday - night. During the
night he became violently worse and died

were responded to by lion: Delos Rockwell;

men and citizens then formed in the street

Leona. Cornet Band tarnished the music,
which is equiValebt to saying that it was of
a first-class character. This Sand deserves
well of the public, and is much appreciated
in our village. Tickets were purchased by

Last Saturday, the opening day of the Bos
ton Clothing, Boot and Shoe 'House, was a
great success in every respect. Crowds of
people were thronging to that establishment
from early in the morning until late at night,
and every one seemed happy, except thew
who could not; be waited upon. We can
honestly say that never before has such a
fine stock of Clothing, Boots and Shoes been
offered•at such extremely low prices. We
see' that the Boston Clothing House are doing
business on a very large scale and are always
doing as they advertise. They will keep in
their stock none but first class goods, and
will have one price to all. They aro sure
they can sell the best goods a great deal lees
than many merchants can bay them for.

• PILES.
Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of tho kidneys or
neighboring organs. At times symptoms of
indigestion are presentias flatulency, uneasi
ness ot the stomach, etc . A. ' moisture like
perspiration, producing a very disagreeable
'telling, particularly at night after getting
warm in bed. is• a Very common attendant.
Internal, External and Itching Piles yield at
once on the application of Dr. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected absorbing the Tumors, allaying the
I
intense tching, and affecting a permanent
cure where all other remedies have failed.
Do not delay until the drain on the system
produces permanent disability, bat try it
and be owed. Price, 50 cents. Ask your
druggist for it, and when you cannot obtain
it of him,
